True, we do cross a bit here .... originally I posted saying I also boot my backend system drive off SSD and I have my TV recordings directory on that drive. It's a multi card high def set up using multiplexing so many front ends hitting the back end and many channels being recorded all at the same time etc etc<BR>
<BR>
I am also going to boot my windows and Linux desktops off SSD drives when I get a minute to reinstall them. Have the drives just no the "minute" :) Why? ... cause once you experience the speed you can't go back. .... well for me it's like that.<BR>

I can agree with everything you say, except that if you are talking
about a frontend what is the relevance of moving 4 streams at 300
MB/s?
